I'm not familiar with the pricing of the Logitech gamepads in question, but I wanted to interject by saying that I agree making the transitition from gameport controllers to USB is very worthwhile. I wouldn't say the change was dramatic, but I noticed somewhat better overall control when I went USB for gamepads and joysticks. > Some people put in an old soundcard like a Sounblaster > Live! disable the sound and just use the gameport on it. Oh boy, these comments really make me feel good about the SB Live! Value card that I'm currently running in my main computer. Not! :-) Yeah I plan to change sound cards soon, but the Live! was brought into service a couple of weeks ago to resolve performance problems that I was having with the Fortissimo III.
